As an independent educational consultant focused on international education, Andrea and The International Learner are eager to support school counsellors and high school communities.
Staying on top of opportunities, and the process to attend university internationally, is a full time endeavor and one that many high school counselors do not have the time to incorporate into their busy schedules. The International Learner partners with high school counselors, teachers, and other IECs to raise awareness of international education. We attend college fairs, meet with high school clubs, participate in regional events, and offer seminars to counselors from schools and community organizations.
As an independent educational consultant specializing in international education, Andrea and The International Learner are available to serve as an ambassador for global universities, promoting the opportunities available to students from the United States.
We are prepared to act as an extension of your international recruitment team, providing valuable support when your staff is unavailable. This includes participating in key high school programs and counsellor events at the local or regional level.
